In the workshop of the Southern Auto Parts Co., Ltd. of Maoshan Scenic Area, Yan Daoyun, general manager born in the migrant worker, led the company's chief engineer Deng Fanlin's team to eat and live in the workshop for more than a month. He repeatedly tested, demonstrated and assembled the newly developed new engineering vehicle C12 special door lock. Finally, the high-quality samples were recognized by Hunan Sany Heavy Industry and mass supply orders. The company completely defeated the "national standard" and comprehensively upgraded the market crisis.
The hard way for migrant workers
"In the past, my family was too poor and I couldn't go out to work. Machine tool die-casting is the hardest job, but it is what I am most interested in." In 2000, Yan Daoyun, who was in his 30s, returned to his hometown to start a business with the skills he learned from work. He borrowed more than 20,000 yuan from relatives and friends, bought a second-hand die-casting machine tool from other places, got up early and went to bed late, and started the hard way for workshop-style production of door locks and accessories.
As a genuine migrant worker, Yan Daoyun is simple and pragmatic, diligent in research on zinc-aluminum die-casting technology, and he is becoming increasingly sophisticated in his hands. His excellent product quality has gradually been recognized by many well-known domestic companies such as Xuzhou Engineering Machinery Group and Hunan Sany Heavy Industry Group. In 2004, Jurong Sunan Auto Parts Co., Ltd. was established, and settled in Xialin Village , and the "Maofeng" trademark was registered.
As orders increased, Yan Daoyun rented more than 5,000 square meters of dilapidated factory buildings in the village, expanded the production scale, and led to employment of more than 100 surrounding villagers. In 2021, the company's output value was 8 million yuan and completed profits and taxes of more than 10 million yuan. In the same year, he was elected as the Party representative of in Jurong City and the president of Maoshan Scenic Area Chamber of Commerce, and won the honorary title of model worker ; in 2022, he was elected as the People's Congress of Jurong City.
The innovation path of "bottleneck" for enterprises
In the first half of this year, Yan Daoyun learned that domestic engineering vehicles will be updated from " National III Standards " to "National IV Standards", and the C12 project will be launched soon. This means that some of the company's original products will be eliminated by the market, and only innovative R&D can protect the market.
After active communication and struggle with Sany Heavy Industry , the company has obtained a fair competition opportunity with well-known domestic and American companies. The premise is that a new product design plan must be submitted within 15 days specified by the other party; within 30 days, sample preparation must be completed and unified bidding must be participated.
Time is life. Yan Daoyun led the company's R&D team to devote himself to the research and development of new products, from rivet design, spring torque test, to the fit and strength test of the lock, the force control of the door lock opening and opening, the material of the outer pulling hand has been improved from plastic to zinc alloy , etc. After several months of day and night research and debugging, one technical difficulty after another, the design plan and sample of the C12 door lock series were finally recognized by Sany Heavy Industry Design Institute, and the new product was simultaneously applied for a national patent.
crisis turns into business opportunities. In August 2022, the company signed a new product supply contract with Sany Heavy Industry. By the end of December this year, all engineering door locks of Sany Heavy Industry will be switched to the "National IV New Product" developed by the company. This item alone will increase the company's output value by at least 30 million yuan each year, and at the same time lay a solid foundation for catching up with domestic and foreign peers.
The road to reform the industrial workers' team in the new era
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposes to build a modern industrial system. Manufacturing is an important support for the improvement of quality and acceleration of my country's real economy development and the foundation for building a modern industrial system. The crisis of upgrading the "national standard" made Yan Daoyun deeply realize that only by promoting the reform of the industrial worker team in the new era, keeping pace with the times, boldly innovating, building a team of high-quality industrial workers in manufacturing, and transforming the company's technology and talent advantages into market competitiveness and industry voice can the company be ensured to have a sustainable development.
In order to enable employees to adapt to technical positions faster, he opened a craftsman classroom in the workshop, taught employees step by step to master the technology, discussed and solved problems on the spot, and provided employees with a platform for learning and communication, without reservation and doing their best. Over the years, Yan Daoyun has led his team to overcome numerous technical problems and obtained more than 30 national patents for utility models in the manufacturing engineering industry.
"As an innovative technology enterprise, only innovation and reform can the enterprise develop." Yan Daoyun, who grew up from a migrant worker to a model worker and chairman of Sunan Auto Parts Co., Ltd., said that in the face of the future, he will be more firm in inheriting the spirit of model worker and the spirit of craftsmanship , pass on the baton of technological innovation, cultivate more young craftsmen, use superb skills and craftsmanship to serve the market, and "cast" the reform and innovation path for high-quality development of enterprises in the new era.
